In this deeply reflective and inspiring episode of Eighty or EightyThousand, Haitian street icon Ali “Zoe” Adam sits down with co-host Stephano “Smooth” Lewis to deliver a powerful message that many need to hear — stop glorifying violence and the street life.
Ali, who lived through the harsh realities of the streets, and Stephano, who brings wisdom through experience and faith, open up about the dangerous mindset that continues to pull young people toward the illusion of fast money, gang loyalty, and false respect. Together, they expose how street life often gets romanticized in music and media — but in reality, it leads to trauma, prison, and death.
Ali speaks on the real cost of being a street general, including 18 years in federal prison, the lives lost, and the pain that never leaves. Stephano echoes the message by focusing on the power of personal choice, spiritual accountability, and how the streets don’t love anybody — even if they pretend to at first.
This episode is about accountability, healing, and redirection. It’s about talking to the youth before it’s too late, and having the courage to say: “I did it — but I don’t want you to.” Both men take a strong stance against the glorification of gang culture, urging listeners to seek legacy, not reputation.
For anyone who thinks being “real” means being reckless, Ali and Stephano are here to flip that narrative. Real is responsibility. Real is redemption. Real is choosing life.
This is one of the most powerful conversations you’ll hear this year — and it could save someone’s future.
